It's been almost a year since I last wrote something on DA. Suddenly I was gone, and many people have been wondering where I went. Well, actually, I went nowhere. I was at home. Curtains closed, door closed, phone off, ignoring the doorbell. Yes, for a long time indeed. But that was me, hiding from the world because I don't like the damn place. Which, on a sidenote, I still don't.
So what did I do a whole year long? I played WoW, not because it's an addictive game, but because it gave me a whole world to hide in. Being Yina the female druid (hey, if you gonna look at a toon for hours a day, you better look at something pretty) was a nice experience. But life never fails at being ironic. Playing a healer in an online game for months, I eventually ended up being the one needing heals in reality. And some decent healing was in order. I however, will spare the details as I don't feel like being called an emo kid. Then again, emo kids don't usually end up in the psychiatric part of the hospital. Yes, you are reading correctly. I was taken in for a severe depression and spent the last three weeks in hospital getting therapy. Quite the strengthening experience I must say. The conclussion of the psychiatrist was "Vital Depression". Which, in my case, manifested itself in a dominant solitair behaviour. The more annoying part of this is less of an interesting matter. It means that depression is literally in my genes, and that there's no real cure for it. What I need to do is, change a few of my thinking patterns, and perhaps medication. The latter I'd rather avoid as I'm not fond of pills and all that, but if it's what it takes, I'll do it. Because I'm goddamn sick now of falling into depressions over and over again. Luckily, I'm blessed with the best sister ever (ya rly), and my parents are supporting me very greatly as well.
But the road is still long, and I'll be doing therapy during a day for a few weeks more I think. Which is alright, the other people there are very nice and cool, and I made some really good friends during my time in the hospital. And some fans because I let them read my works ;)

Oh yea, another thing. I'm not sure I'll be posting stuff on DA again, but hey, you never know. I just might if I'll bother translating.

This in short to inform the people that have wondered where the hell I've been so long.

I'll be around.

I've been down a similar road myself in my recent past, I am relieved to hear from you, even if just through a journal. Your writing and work is not lost to my memory, I hope to see more art from you soon, remember the support of friends and family Yves. Remember you are loved.

-Michael.

Words can't explain how much I've missed you, just can't help but tell you that no matter how many times I have before...

I've tried calling and stuff, but you never answered so I figured you were on a path of self discovery. I'm just glad you're ok love. Have honestly missed you more than the world.

You crazy bastard. Do you have any idea how worried I've been about you!? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't slightly upset. But when push comes to shove, I don't care about that because I'm just happy you're alive. Yes, you read that correctly. Several weeks after you vanished, all manner of posibilities came into my head, which is unfortunate for an individual who is... No longer strong, or mentally collected. But that last bit is beside the point. I won't go any further here, though there is much I'd like to say, as I would prefer to... say it personally. And don't you think for one minute that I haven't missed you every second you've been gone. No our relationship has not changed in my eyes, and I'm sure you can guess what that means, yes? That's right, you can expect a heavy scolding for not letting me help you out of things like this as I promised I would! ooohhhh, you're in for it now Buster, just you wait and see!

All I'm tellin' them, I'm back and I'm not. I can't remember where I was, I forgot. Knitting it all, these holes that I need, to crawl through a brick wall is hard to say the least.
:iconthe-grimm-reeper:
Stay strong bro. You've got a tough struggle, but you seem to be a tough person.
Good Luck.

I remember Michael, I sure do remember. While I was in hospital, I reread all my works, and I thought of you too when I read "Celia". Brought me an extra smile to my face.
